The planet, "Uranus" has 27 moons . . . there may be a few that have not been discovered. The odd thing about the names of Uranus's moons is that they are all named for char…acters in Shakepeare's plays. All the other planets' moons are named for Greek gods or their friends and enemies.

There are 27 in total and mostly named after Shakespearian characters. They are in 3 concentric orbits of 13 inner moons, 5 Major moons and 9 irregular moons. The inner moons …are Cordelia, Ophelia, Bianca, Cressida, Desdemona, Juliet, Portia, Rosalind and Cupid. The five major moons are Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon. The irregular moons are Francisco, Caliban, Ferdinand, Setebos, Prospero, Margaret, Sycorax, Stephano and Trinculo.

Well five years ago it had four moons, Coriph, Benidictinor, Kazadaar, and Northrend. Then recently, Coriph and Kazadaar collided, causing one moon to emerge. Coriphadaar is t…he new moon. Now chunks of each are hurtled toward earth, and will strike sometime late 2012.
